we were talking about michelle obama. is she a natural? is she just so comfortable now on the stage that she could handle that kind of moment? >> i think she is exactly who she is, that what you saw was completely genuine. the first lady has always been like that. she and the president both have this really long history of community organizing, working with families, church groups, people of faith, students, and that's exactly what you saw last night was the first lady really speaking from the heart, talking about her husband, talking about the incredible people she's met along the way, the work that she and dr. biden have done with the troops. it got me teary-eyed. i think the first lady got inspired because of the stories she was relating. >> the stakes for bill clinton coming out tonight, you went through the campaign, you know just how bitter it was against the clintons. this is a coming together where bill clinton is really going to be validating barack obama on welfare reform and some of the other issues. >> absolutely. and we are so
